I'm Rahil Babooram - a singer/ songwriter/musician, living in Trinidad, Caribbean (but Canadian by birth).
I'm a one-man band for my recordings [vocals, guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, percussion, etc.], but when I perform live I either play alone or get together a backing band (leading back to 1998).
I have been singing and composing my own songs and recording them since I was 10 but only seriously from age 17
(1996/7) when I recorded my first album's demo ['Gaura-Vani'] which was re-recorded in studio in January 1999.
My 1st 3 albums 'GAURA-VANI', 'SIMPLY RAHIL' & 'ORANGE' are available for sale
- write me at simplyrahil@yahoo.co.uk to order them or check out http://rbabooram.freewebpage.org/RBabooramBusiness.html
Discography of my albums so far:
"Gaura-Vani" (demo recorded in 1997 - studio in 1999)
"Simply Rahil" (2006)
"Orange" (2006)
"Cuatro" (2007 - in progress)
